I expect a big drop in overall monero hashpower just after the fork. Should we try to get a few extra coins from it?
Definitely going to have the rigs at the ready haha. Think Nicehash will have the algo? Hope not lol. Nicehash is using either XMRig or Stak-XMR - both have announced upgrades, XMRig already had the new code available next week and it's trivial to install the new code manually. I wouldn't count on Nicehash having no miners prepared for the fork when it happens....

The one thing I would worry about is that solar and car alternator systems are NOT in fact +12VDC, but 13.6 "nominal" and commonly up to 15 VDC when charging.
That is some great advice, to be completely honest with you, we didnt even think about the voltage being that high when we ran it off the diesel engine. The GPU seemed to not have any issues with it, atleast the one we are testing it out on. Im shocked we didn't damage the GPU trying to run it this way, because the alternator ramped up to 14.7v under load of mining.... In regards to hooking up the GPU, the gpu is plugged directly into the mobo of the test pc currently... no riser at all being used for this setup. The GPU itself is getting its 12v and grnd from outside of the atx psu. Im pretty sure the solar controller is capable of adjusting the max voltage down closer to 12v, just need to look further into it. It can't go TOO low or it doesn't charge the batteries. Standard lead-acid batteries (which are still the norm in solar/wind power systems 'cause they're CHEAP for the capacity, and the weight isn't an issue) require a good bit more than 12 VDC to charge them - and tend to deliver a bit more than 12 VDC under light-to-medium load when fully charged. No we want to lower the voltage because the intentions of this system is a setup that will use 100% of the solar+more... the rig is still mining, we decided to run it another night with the solar controller turned down on the max battery voltage some. We have it setup in Lithium Battery mode, which produces a max voltage of 12.6 according to the manual, we are saw as high as 12.5v during peak of the day.

Sorry for my mistake. I've followed a hot discussion of the fork of both monero team and xmr-stak team just a day ago and both sides where pretty sure that the fork's due 28.03.18, never bothered to double-check. As for Claymore's miners the author did not answer any questions nor announced anything in GPU thread :-( Good to find such a news about the update.

I'll be switching over to XMR the very minute the fork happens - I expect a massive hashrate drop Let's hope SMos will update fast !

Thanks! Man, that mini is a power hungry SOB!! Nah, it's 1080 ti's in general that want lots of power by current standards, my R9 290s tend to sniff at the power-sipping cool running noob cards. I don't have any 295x2 or 7990 cards or others of the "2 GPU on one board" style though.

Any tips regarding the upcoming monero fork? Are guys gonna move your ati rigs towards the new algo for monero? What about the price of the monero? I hope it will rise.

No one know what's going to happen Some people say it will decrease diff because the asics, but a lot of people will jump to monero at the same time...

This email from Canaan... "...On Monday we will update the webstore with new prcing for the 841 and 821. The 841 will be priced at $1625 per unit with an MOQ of 60 units. You can either order in the shop or email steve@canaan.io. Shipping usually takes between 7 and 14 days of payment. Ask your sales agent about additional discounts. The 821 will be sold in a special package along with 4 free 841. Please see the shop on monday or ask your sales agent...." In January, they advised that the A821 will be around 3000-4000 $USD each. We complaint that the so called "special" price is outrageous, and so we postponed the group's plan to expand the Avalon farm. Their sales guy said, they have pre-orders up to the hilt already so it was okay for the group to back out from the bulk purchase. The group was to place 400 units x A821s.... instead we put the funds to good use and bought BTC at 6k-7k. Imagine 841s now priced at 1625$... i can just imagine the frustrations of the early buyers of the A8 series.
